Value Collection 011053PR Hex Socket Cap Screw 6-32 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 011053PR is a hex socket cap screw designed for secure, high-strength fastening in tight spaces where a standard external-drive fastener cannot be used. It features a 6-32 UNC thread and measures 0.25 inches in length under the head, making it suited for shallow fastening applications. Driven with a 7/64 inch hex key, the socket head allows precise torque application without fastener damage. Manufactured from alloy steel with a black oxide coating, this screw delivers strong mechanical performance and moderate corrosion resistance in indoor or protected environments. Installation requires no special tooling beyond a standard hex key.

This screw is a common choice in light mechanical assemblies, electronics enclosures, instrument panels, and general fabrication work where a low-profile socket head is required. The 6-32 UNC thread is one of the most widely used machine screw threads in North American trade applications, appearing in electrical panels, HVAC control boards, and equipment housings. The fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement in thin materials. This part is sold individually, with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces per order.

Key Features

• 6-32 UNC thread for broad compatibility with standard tapped holes in light assemblies
• Fully threaded shank maximizes thread engagement across the full 0.25 inch length under head
• 7/64 inch hex socket drive allows use in recessed or space-restricted locations
• Alloy steel construction provides high tensile strength relative to standard carbon steel fasteners
• Black oxide finish offers mild corrosion resistance and reduces light reflection in finished assemblies
• Meets ASME/ANSI B18.3 and ASTM A574 standards for dimensional and mechanical compliance

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement or general-use hex socket cap screw for any application requiring a 6-32 UNC thread, 0.25 inch length under head, and 7/64 inch hex drive in alloy steel with black oxide finish.

Installation Notes

Install with a 7/64 inch hex key or appropriately sized Allen driver. Ensure the tapped hole is clean and free of debris before driving. Do not overtighten in thin sheet metal or soft substrate materials, as the fine 6-32 thread is susceptible to stripping under excessive torque. Power down any electrical equipment before accessing fastener locations inside live panels or control enclosures.
